    so. This his friend who warned him, turned his horse on the road. He at length mounted the horse and proceeded homewards.
    The folllowing day the man who accampanied him to the fair, came to know what happended to him on the proceeding evening.
    So he told his story to him, But he then yoked his horses and went out to plough but strangely enough they were unyoked again in the field before his eyes.
    After that he never told the story again.
    These was supposed to be the good people, and the friend who warned him was supposed to be a friend of his who was in the fairies.
